No. It is the one in boost sand_box provided by Jan Gaspar. It has a few
more facility than the ASL one.
Like it can reorganize itself to a linear buffer, and can (re)set the
capacity to a new one, among few others.
  I am not sure why boost is still not including directly, or not
pushing it for any standard. In my opinion it is the second most
important data structure after hash_map (which also surprisingly missed
from STL ) esp for programming with small memory devices.

Also it looks my question is posted in wrong thread. Will try to post in
  a separate thread.
